Quote of the Day – California Politics Edition

“Just think: in the near future, California drivers could be distracted not just by digital billboards, digital phones, and digital nav systems, but by millions of blinking, flashing, scrolling digital license plates! And just to make the idea even better, there’s no chance that this would have more than the most minuscule effect on the state budget. It’s perfect! No wonder the feasibility study passed unanimously.”Kevin Drum on the Golden State’s flirtation with license plates that flash ads.
